BENGALURU: As the country is gearing up for this year’s festive season, Myntra is set to make it more special for its discerning customers by expanding into the Gifting category with a massive selection of more than 70,000 options to choose from. Coupled with the launch of the campaign ‘Great Gifts for Great Gift Givers’, Myntra forays into the segment and aims to solve the glaring need in the market for a single credible platform that brings together the choicest, unique yet meaningful gift options that can truly reflect the thoughtful sentiment of all the great gift-givers.
India has a unique position where gifting occasions go beyond special days and include festivals and occasions too. A Diwali gift would be different from a wedding gift, and a naming ceremony gift would be different from a birthday present. In addition, there is also an evolution in the need for gifting which is marked by newer occasions like gifting colleagues for promotions and farewells and many more.
This deeply entrenched culture of gifting, together with evolving customer preferences, rising disposable incomes, and exposure to global trends, is giving a fillip to the $72 billion industry, according to industry reports.
